2025 Annexation
|
Oak Grove Fire Department, established in 1994, serves the rapidly growing Northwestern Wagoner County. We are proud to operate with a team of 34 dedicated volunteers who work tirelessly to protect our community. With two stations and 14 apparatus, we respond to approximately 475 calls each year. We deploy often for large scale wildfires and disasters as recently as the 2024 Claremore Tornado event. We also provide automatic mutual aid for structure fires to neighboring communities, including Catoosa, Verdigris, Rolling Hills, Fair Oaks, as well as specific areas of Tulsa and Broken Arrow. We are an all hazards response fire department meaning we respond to any 911 call for service to include Fires, Motor Vehicle Accidents, Rescues, Medicals, Hazmat incidents, Etc.
Our commitment to excellence is reflected in our ISO rating of 3, a significant achievement for a department as young and rural as ours. This rating benefits the citizens of our district by ensuring high-quality fire protection and lower property insurance premiums. As our community continues to grow, so does our department. We are excited to announce plans for further expansion, including the addition of a third station near 81st and 305th in Eastern Broken Arrow.
This expansion will mark our fourth annexation, following those in 2003, 2006, and 2016. With this new station, we aim to enhance our services by improving response times, increasing community involvement, and providing a stronger sense of safety and community. Additionally, this annexation will enable us to transition from a fully volunteer department to a combination department, allowing us to have full-time firefighters on duty 24/7 in addition to our current volunteer staff.
